+This hook is called to check the content a user has entered on a page,
+before it is saved, and decide if it should be allowed.
+
+It is passed named parameters: `content`, `page`, `cgi`, and `session`. If
+the content the user has entered is a comment, it may also be passed some
+additional parameters: `author`, `url`, and `subject`. The `subject`
+parameter may also be filled with the user's comment about the change.
+
+Note: When the user edits an existing wiki page, this hook is also
+passed a `diff` named parameter, which will include only the lines
+that they added to the page, or modified.
+
+The hook should return `undef` on success. If the content is disallowed, it
+should return a message stating what the problem is, or a function
+that can be run to perform whatever action is necessary to allow the user
+to post the content.
